My Approach to Helping

In my practice I work with clients with a broad range of issues/concerns, including stresses related to family change such as separation/divorce, parenting concerns, and emotional and behavioral difficulties for children and adolescents that negatively impact their functioning at home and school. I work with individuals and couples, as well as with children and adolescents from preschool age (approximately 4 years old and up) through the late teen years. I have over 20 years of experience working in a variety of capacities with children and families helping them manage and overcome both outwardly directed behavioral/emotional issues such as oppositional behavior, attention deficits, and problems with anger control; as well as internally directed issues such as anxiety, depression, learning problems, and low motivation/underachievement. I provide both individual and family therapy using solution focused, brief problem solving, cognitive behavioral, and family systems approaches.
